So now that we've got an established member with the name of everyone's favorite cured pork product, we need a thread dedicated to the myriad uses of bacon. I'll start it off:

Love roasting a whole turkey, but hate how the white meat tends to get all dried out? About an hour before the bird is going to be done, lay several slices of bacon on top of it. It'll keep the bird nice and juicy as the pork fat slowly rends out of the strips, plus, you get to eat the bacon :fsm_nom:

Srsly, we need that smiley

shrimp rumaki - this i do on the grill in the summer - one shrimp per skewer (you kind of stretch it out threading the the skewer through the shrimp, wrap a basil leaf around the shrimp, then wrap a piece of bacon tightly around the entire thing. Through it on the grill. EAT.)

but my all time favorite is still a yummy BLT

Get your bake on.

It will be days before all this drool dries up from my keyboard.

We eat almost entirely vegetarian at home, except fish. Mrs. T is a pity vegetarian. No fillet mignonnies. No turkeyses. No chickenses. No blits. No bacons.

First, toast up a slice or two of bread. Then I take the 9" frying pan and fry up the bacon. Once cooked, immediately put the bacon on the toast, allowing it to soak up the grease. Because I use the smaller pan, there's leftover, sizzling, liquid bacon fat in the pan. Now take two eggs and fry them sunny-side up in the bacon fat. Once cooked, plop the eggs down on the bacon and toast. Grind fresh black pepper on top, and enjoy.
